Stolen Space X tech

[Christian Keil @pronounced_kyle]

Overnight, China successfully launched a new medium-class rocket to orbit — Long March 12B.

Looks like they gave no airspace notice (!), and carried suspiciously Starlink-shaped satellites to orbit... all on their first try.

China's space industry is catching up to ours, fast.

[Ryan Walker @ryanlwalker]

The reports are real. Took my first @united flight last week equipped with Starlink. Unbelievable speed and a fantastic sign in process. Bravo to all involved @SpaceX

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

United Airlines expects to have @Starlink installed on 80% of its entire fleet by the end of this year.

Southwest expects to have 300+ of its airplanes to have Starlink by end of 2026.

What a day. 🇺🇸

[Ryan Walker @ryanlwalker]

Not the own you think it is. Incompetence and complacency anywhere should be snuffed out, no?

[Martin Austermuhle @maustermuhle]

It's worth reminding everyone that the federal monuments and fountains that President Trump is cleaning up are... federal monuments and fountains that local D.C. officials have no control over! In fact, D.C. officials have long complained of federal sites falling into disrepair.

I’ve never seen this foundation function. In fact, for years, the basin was covered in plywood. I moved to DC in 2010…

[Reagan Reese @reaganreese_]

Happening now: Columbus Circle at Union Station is completely restored as part of Trump’s effort to make “DC Safe and Beautiful.”

Secretary Burgum and Secretary Duffy are here to cut the ribbon for the official reopening.

I’d rather have a data center than 9 days of straight rain.

I ate one almond the other day. Then I felt bad about the water usage, so I thought to myself - well I just won’t make the next 15,000 AI queries I was planning on making

Need the Pope to release an encyclical against Teams calls

[Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47]

Google announces a $15B data center in Mid-Missouri, creating thousands of construction jobs & hundreds of permanent jobs:

"It won't hurt the water supply as it will be built with air cooling technology. [Google's] going to spend $20M to drive down energy bills for residents."

[Jordan Schachtel @JordanSchachtel]

New data centers generate so much tax revenue for the local govt that you can almost zero out property taxes entirely. A bold politician could go as far as proposing a data center dividend for residents. The ridiculous degrowth psyop against these buildouts is so nonsensical.

[Ryan Walker @ryanlwalker]

Can we please, for the love of God, bring back beaux-arts? I haaaaaaaaate the glass/steel aesthetic. We will hate this more than brutalism in 50 years. No soul.

[Secretary Sean Duffy @SecDuffy]

🚨BREAKING: PENN STATION UPDATE🚨

I’m proud to announce that @USDOT and @Amtrak have officially selected the MASTER DEVELOPER TEAM for the historic New York Penn Station renovation!

To keep the momentum moving, we are investing an additional $200 MILLION TODAY to ensure the project is on track to BREAK GROUND NEXT YEAR

❌ GOODBYE to cramped, decrepit walkways
✅ HELLO to open concourses, new retail and smoother tracks

Under President Trump’s leadership, Penn Station’s gloomy days are numbered 🇺🇸

🚨Next up in TPA’s state-by-state data center analysis: South Carolina.

Despite the fearmongering, data centers accounted for just 0.6% of the state’s total electricity consumption in 2025. The facts don’t match @RepNancyMace's panic.

[Ryan Walker @ryanlwalker]

To continue my common sense theme…

What’s that broken glass theory again? For the first time in a while, I’m hopeful…for both sides of the aisle. May pragmatism and discernment win the day.

[Kenyan McDuffie @kenyanmcduffie]

Accountability and opportunity must go hand in hand. Janeese Lewis George voted against giving DC a curfew tool to respond to youth gatherings that have, at times, erupted into violence. And when the Council had the opportunity to extend rec center hours, she shut it down, choosing politics over our youth.

As Mayor, I won’t tolerate this kind of disorder, and I’ll make sure our young people have safe, constructive places to go.

[Ryan Walker @ryanlwalker]

I'm sure Adam will hear a lot. In reality it comes down to custody and the obligations that bestows on the custodian.

[Andy Masley @AndyMasley]

Can anyone give me a quick rundown of why this didn't happen for so long? Was crazy how much nicer it was when I walked by.

[@jason @Jason]

Honestly, fuck almonds

[Trung Phan @TrungTPhan]

a reboot of The Office with Claude as an employee would single-handedly be worth $2T in capex, a 3x in electricity bill and 20x increase in DRAM prices

[Steve Everley @saeverley]

Washington Post carefully explains that many of the loudest claims against data centers are "badly overstated"
